SINGAPORE - There are currently no plans to introduce vaccination-differentiated measures for children aged 12 and below, said Health Minister Ong Ye Kung on Monday .

This means children will be able to enter schools and public areas no matter their inoculation status.

If such children contract Covid-19, they will have their medical bills fully covered by the Government regardless of vaccination status. But they must be citizens, permanent residents or long-term pass holders, and not have travelled recently. If Delta infections hit a sustained incidence of about 3,000 cases daily, Omicron could reach 10,000 to 15,000 cases a day or more.
